Default Pulled the trigger on these wheels.

They are the OEM wheels that have a PVD powder coating to give them a bright silver finish, they are not chrome and do not have the typical issue associated with chrome wheels.

The vehicle is brand new with 300 miles on it however Lexus does not seem to offer a bright silver wheel and I personally do not like the look of darker wheels. I need some contrast.

They are are identical to my stock wheels, which I do like the style of. ��

Yes 2019 F-Sport in pearl white. The darker wheels just didn’t fit this vehicle.

I will once they get here. It takes several weeks for the process. I’m getting them ceramic coated before anything else.

Default OEM wheel options for chrome or hyper silver

I recently bought a 16 RX Nebula gray with stratus interior and really like it, I was coming from an 11 GX460 so not sure really my options for OEM or Replica type wheels. I’m just not crazy about the 20” wheel that looks like a flower black and gray. I have the 18” option in silver and would be content if they came in the hyper silver. I would like to know if there are other model Lexus wheels that would be a nice look for my truck. I like the graphite colored wheels on the FSport as well as the most hyper silver and chrome OEM wheels. Since I bought my RX I see them everywhere and always with the same 2 wheels unless FSport. It seems the GS and LS got the nicest wheels IMO. Thoughts or pictures of your RX with optional wheels would be great

Its interesting they call it pearl white. It reminds me of the new finish on the 2022 ES. Very nice looking, Can’t wait to see the picture.

I noticed that the day after I posted LOL. Who knows maybe we will get a picture, I need some wheels with shine as well. I like the FSport wheels but I have the Nebula color and it would be too close to the same.

I have a Nebula Grey 2022 and like the near color matching 20" F-Sport wheels.

Thanks for the picture, that does look good. I have seen them in hyper silver and I really like the metallic look, I’d like to see them in the new Lexus color superchrome I believe they call it. It’s on the 2022 ES and it’s super bright but not chrome.
